I often believe that I know best. That the trajectory of my life is all up to me. But there are so many factors and circumstances in this world that are outside of my control. Only someone whom life itself submits to, can forge a consistent and good path. As you read this poem, I hope that you are encouraged to place your trust in God, and not on your own understanding.
My unreliable beliefs are obstructing my way,
Too weak to carry the burden of life,
Too strong to recognize that they error and fray,
And I find I am helpless in my time of need.
It’s frightening how darkness can shine as the light,
To dull human senses that stumble in the night,
But I know that there’s a better path, a better song, a better promise,
To trust in God, his love and trustworthiness.
